The Minimalist Entrepreneur: How Great Founders Do More with Less

Saved by Ev Williams and
Creation begets more creation.
You don’t learn, then start. You start, then learn.
Creators make things, charge their audiences for those things, and then use that money to make more things.
Before you become an entrepreneur, become a creator.
Take a good hard look at the people, places, and communities you care about. Where are the pain points? What isn’t working, but might with a little elbow grease?
And it doesn’t have to be millions; “enough” is what you decide it is, not a specific amount.
This is what being a minimalist entrepreneur is all about: making a difference while making a living.
You don’t learn, then start. You start, then learn.
Each company goes about things their own way depending on the specific community they’re building for, but they all focus on problem-solving and not taking themselves too seriously. No matter their differences, we can learn from them all.
